GOD HAS CHOSEN THREE HUNDRED

There has been much discussion in books, films and the internet as towhere the ten lost tribes of Israel are. While I believe they weredisbursed almost everywhere, according to scripture some were in Greece.The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go thatwe cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among theGreeks, and teach the Greeks? John 7:35 NIV

Before Leonidas and the brave three hundred there was Gideon and histhree hundred.

The Lord said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men that lapped Iwill save you and give the Midianites into your hands. Let all the others go home.”Judges 7:7 NIV

These men were not afraid of battle and watched for opportunity to engage their foe. They spied on the enemy, gave them no quarter, caught them off guard, surrounded their camp and pursued after them. God had put a fear in the enemy mind through a dream.

In the tradition of liberty and freedom the number three hundred has an historical connection. This is a good start. My prayer is that we be Godly men and women so the Lord will put a fear in the enemy mind.
